[h3]SnowRunner releases today alongside New Frontiers expansion and the reveal of second year of post-launch support![/h3]

We're absolutely delighted to announce SnowRunner is now available on Steam! Not only that, but Season 4: New Frontiers releases today too, and we're thrilled to confirm that the Year 2 Pass with four new seasons of content is on the way. It's been an incredible year, and before embarking on yet another year of amazing adventures, we want to thank you all for coming on this journey with us!

New Frontiers takes you to Amur Oblast, Russia, and provides 16 square kilometers of rugged Russian wilderness to navigate for the rehabilitation of an abandoned rocket launch site. With the release of New Frontiers into the wild, SnowRunner’s total size has been effectively doubled since the first phase of the Season Pass, and all of the content released so far is available now. With Year 1 coming to an end, more than 2 million players have been charting their own routes and over 30 million mods have been downloaded. Last but not least, the Year 2 Pass is right around the corner, bringing 4 new seasons of content featuring new maps, new vehicles and new activities along with free content for everyone, including beloved customization items, add-ons and more!

We look forward to sharing more details on the Year 2 Pass content later!

Season 4: New Frontiers releases today as part of the Year 1 Pass. The Premium Edition of the game includes both the base game and Year 1 Pass. The Year 2 Pass is now also available. For more information, check out the official store.
